I am attempting to write a short program to set the pixmap for an xterm
window.  It doesn't seem to modify the hints.  Any ideas?

#include <stdio.h>
#include <X11/X.h>
#include <X11/Xlib.h>
#include <X11/Xutil.h>

extern XWMHints*	XGetWMHints();

main(argc, argv)
int	argc;
char**	argv;
{
    Display*	display = XOpenDisplay(getenv("DISPLAY"));
    Window	window = atoi(getenv("WINDOWID"));
    int		screen = DefaultScreen(display);
    Window	rw = RootWindow(display, screen);
    XWMHints*	hints = (XWMHints*) NULL;
    int		x, y, w, h;
    Pixmap	bitmap;
    char*	fn = (char*) NULL;

    if (argc == 2) {
	fn = argv[1];
	if ((hints = XGetWMHints(display, window)) != (XWMHints*) NULL) {
	    int		status;

	    hints->flags |= IconPixmapHint;
	    status = XReadBitmapFile(display, rw, fn, &w, &h, &bitmap, &x, &y);
	    if (status == BitmapSuccess) {
		hints->icon_pixmap = bitmap;
		status = XSetWMHints(display, window, hints);
		XFree(hints);
		if (status != BadAlloc && status != BadWindow) {
		    exit(0);
		}
	    }
	}
    }
    exit(1);
}
